>> it looked so clunky, and this one does not do that. they are called omnidirectional wheels, and they are also used on the mars land rover. todd: he controls it using an app on his phone. >> it is just a virtual joystick, allowing you to go in any direction. todd: even with the price deck, he raise the money in just two days with a gofundme account. >> it is a generosity of spirit. talk: they did not just by him a wheelchair. a bought him a new way to live. >> i did not want to be a conversation piece, but if i was going to be one, i wanted to be a popular one. stacey: he also says he wants to thank his friends and family for helping to raise the money to buy his new high-tech

steve: well, jason, hello, winter. jason: it is trying. oh, my gosh. snow, not even in the forecast, but it is definitely chilly out there. teens and 20's, mainly central and eastern portions of the state. this will stay active as we go through the next couple of days, really for the next 24 hours, and that did not bother these swans, taking their stroll. still a little bit of light rain out there. you can see that light band all of the way up towards the northern portions of the state. very light, but as i said earlier, what we will have a lot of is cloud cover. we are not going to see much sun tomorrow, a few brakes as we head throughout the day. otherwise, low 40's, upper 30's and still -- until we start to

snow in portions of north and south dakota as they have winter weather advisory's -- advisories that are out. it is possible that this clears that as we go through the evening hours tomorrow, and we start to see some of that cloud cover, but we do not see the wind died down. that cooler air, and the wind is sticks around, and what is going along with this in the upper level, a trough continues to shift in. warm temperatures, at least air temperatures -- would be wind, it seems a lot chillier. this will bring in some chilly conditions, temperatures coming up in the teens. the chilliness will abound. you can see the future cast brings in more clouds throughout the day tomorrow with scattered showers.

no real breaks i chilly evening tomorrow. if you are getting your hopes up for sunshine, it will be eventually, but it would just take a while to get there. enjoy the mild temperatures. we're back into the upper 30's am a low 40's tomorrow, and i say air temperatures because that wind chill will make it feel like mid-20's through most of the day tomorrow, so even though the temperature is in your -- is near 40, it will not feel that comfortable. a light mix for those of us off the northwest. the next days, we cool down on friday, and then there are the teens i was talking about. we go back to above average warmth. we do not see a lick of precipitation clear until the middle of next week. the next shot roles in next wednesday with a high of 46.

what a man in i would did after anncr: when the attacks come here... ...the person behind this desk will have to protect your family. will he be impulsive and reckless, like donald trump? will he have voted to dramatically weaken counter-terrorism surveillance, like ted cruz? will he have skipped crucial national security hearings and votes just to campaign, like marco rubio? 27 generals and admirals support jeb bush. because jeb has the experience and knowledge to protect your family. right to rise usa is responsible

steve: hey, we want to say a big, great thank you for anyone

tots, and we raised $78,223 for the u.s. marine corps in their annual toys for talks to rise, and that is a record, ladies and gentlemen. the marines also collected 4,107 toys. , and we appreciate each and every one of the volunteers who helped to make this great holiday tradition happened. stacey: and panhandlers and a man who wanted a job. steve: it is what he did that is getting all kinds of attention. stacey: on the corner in muscatine, you can find in two regular panhandlers several times a week. mik,e pothoff try to offer them a job at his business, in the refused. a few days later, they were back at it, holding signs saying they were broke and hungry.

so mike decided to join him. -- to join them. the picture of mike has gone viral. he says he doesn't have a problem with panhandlers but just once to make sure they really do need help. >> this is live tv. that is the robber who just went by. i have got to go here and called 911. i will talk to you later. steve: how about that? that was a reporter named adam sallet.

announcer: from iowa's sports leader, this is kcci 8 sports. andy: the senior from canada says he will be setting out for

arthroscopic surgery. averaging 12 points a game, a couple of threes every time out, and five steals so far this year. the team will apply at the end of the season. at the same time the cyclones lose a player, steve prohm adds one. marquette transfer deonte burton is eligible starting with this weekend's big as we are classic. he is an athletic, big man who will find a place to make a difference. but i will meet with him this week to talk about his role and my expectations and our expert's for him. andy: the cyclones back in action with game two, the first game the hawkeyes at 3:30, both of them at wells fargo arena. and matt campbell has chosen his first offense of coordinator.

as i found out, piecing this staff together is just one of the things that the coach is keeping busy with. >> the fun part for me over the last weeks is trying to find out what has gone on here, you know, within the program, really getting a chance to sit down with our players here, and what is their family situation like, where they come from, and ultimately, why did they choose iowa state, and what is their experience, and i think it is giving a great idea of how and where we need to go from here on out. andy: can you point to a program other than toledo? to say, we want to do what baylor does? do you have a roadmap like that? >> we will do what it takes to be successful. our foundation has always been

game, and number one is to identify who are those players in the program, and what to do to lend those players to be successful, so to me, i do not know if you can copy anybody. we have got our own pieces that are positive, and both give us chances to be successful. our job is to develop those pieces and then continue to add rate pieces around them so we can be as successful as we want to be. it has been tremendous. andy: are you a rock star? >> i have not been to the grocery store much. i have not left here much, white honestly, but i am really humbled and grateful. the kindness of the people. you can tell there is great passion here, tremendous people who just have a kind heart, really caring people. they have been great to me since

again, i think my biggest thing is to make this people proud of our program both on and off the field. andy: the defense of coordinator, it sounds like he is close but not ready, and he was not ready to commit to anything. what he said right there, he wants to make people proud.

jason: we have a cool down, but more importantly, the sunshine, back into the 40's by sunday. [kcci captioning is brought to you by the iowa clinic] i love a gourmet cheeseburger as much as anybody. and that's why we created the pub burger at culver's. my favorite cheeseburger starts with great beef. when you get that burger in your hand and the juices are flowing, you want to devour it. chef, we're going to make a pepper grinder pub burger. i'm stoked, man. we've got a little wisconsin swiss and wisconsin cheddar. those are the criteria for me fresh beef, bacon, wisconsin cheese. the four-peppercorn mayo really sets this burger apart.

our new pepper grinder pub burger.
